July 2, 2009 our Royal Caribbean Eastern Caribbean 9 day cruise out of Baltimore. I took photos of the ship going under the Key Bridge. The bridge was hit by a container ship and collapsed on March 26 2024.  Thoughts and prayers to all who were involved in this tragic bridge collapse.

1. This one of two bunnies that I always see in our yard. The White-throated Sparrow is one of my winter birds, still being seen. 





2.





3. Not the best photos of the Eastern Phoebe, taken from my kitchen window. I am seeing some spring birds moving in even though my winter birds have not left.  





4. Our walk on our local fire road, we met a new neighbor with her three cute dogs. They were friendly dogs and seemed happy to meet us too.





5. Another day our walk was to the lake, we saw a few Canada Geese and two Double-crested Cormorants.





6. A view of the Prettyboy reservoir, the trees were starting to see signs of spring. The buds are a red color. 





7. A closer look at the Double-crested Cormorants.





8. A Canada Geese looks to be sitting on a nest next to the water.  




9. Sometimes I am lucky capturing birds in my yard and on my deck. On this day I saw both the Downy Woodpecker and the Hairy Woodpecker stop for some of the nuggets I put out on the deck railing. The photos shows the size difference between the two different woodpeckers. The Hairy Woodpecker is much larger. The Downy Woodpecker is about 6 1/2 inches compare it to the Hairy Woodpecker is 9 inches.





Another puzzle completed, looks like a scene from an African safari.

These are photos from our visit to Conowingo Dam and the Susquehanna River. We saw lots of Bald Eagles, Vultures and great view of the Great Blue Heron rookery. 


1. The Bald Eagles both adults and juveniles were all around the dam area and river. Some were standing on rocks along the river, in the trees and perched on the dam sign. 





2. On the photo below there are two juvenile Bald Eagles with one adult Eagle. 





3. How many Bald Eagles can you find in the tree below? I found 8 eagles. 




4. This Bald Eagle found something to stare at, a possible meal?






5. The warning sign at the end of the island. There were 2 juvenile Eagles with one adult.







6. The Black Vultures are plentiful at Conowingo. There are warning signs about these vultures eating the rubber off of car windows that are parked in the lot. 





7. At Conowingo I think the Black Vultures outnumber the Turkey Vultures.  They hang out in big groups in the trees and on the ground. 




8.  Here is a Turkey Vulture showing off it's wing span. 







9. The Great Blue Heron rookery is on a small island in the middle of the Susquehanna River just a short distance from the Conowingo Dam. It is great to see so many Heron nests, they are doing well. 





10. I always enjoy seeing the Great Blue Herons, they have a nice rookery at Conowingo.  




11. It is amazing to see how many herons there are, on or around the tiny nest.
